Will Smith nervous about daughter dating
LOS ANGELES, Oct. 26 (UPI) -- U.S. singing legend Frankie Valli enjoyed revisiting his past on his new album, "Romancing the '60s."
Valli -- whose group, the Four Seasons, is the subject of the hit musical "Jersey Boys" -- says the "Romancing the '60s" project "gave me an opportunity to do some songs I would have liked to record in the '60s." Among those are favorites by Stevie Wonder, the Temptations, the Young Rascals, Burt Bacharach and Hal David, and more.
"This was quite a challenge," Valli notes, "doing material that everybody already knew, and all No. 1 songs. The need and desire to make these songs your own was quite challenging."
"Romancing the '60s" was released on Universal Motown. Valli was with the Motown label briefly during the early '70s.
Valli continues to tour and promote productions of "Jersey Boys." He says a movie version of the musical is probably some years off, however.
